View of the fishing port of Santander. With a vibrant colour palette and carefully crafted composition, the artist transports us into the calm yet dynamic atmosphere of this maritime setting. The scene unfolds with moored boats. In the foreground a red boat highlights its importance and dominant presence in the port, while another smaller one, in cerulean blue tones, complements the composition, adding depth and visual variety. The vertical composition of the painting allows the sky, with its yellow-hued clouds contrasting with the varied blues, to occupy an important space, providing a backdrop. Typical port details, such as ropes, bollards and vehicle wheels, are realistically presented in the foreground, adding authenticity and texture to the scene. The calm sea, with its reflections of still water and subtle ripples reflecting the boats, adds a touch of movement and life to the composition.
